Hello magnolia by Ching-Chou Kuik!



It's a beautiful image with lots of hair (my arch nemesis!) I had fun learning where to put the highlights and low lights. I am sure you cannot guess what I colored with! Wink of Stella!!! 

Here's a better look at the subtle shimmer you get with Wink of Stella brush pens. They have a limited color palate but I was able to layer colors to create deeper shades and to blend colors. I have never tried this technique with Wink and I was so happy with the results.



Wink does not yet have skin tones so I did use a Copic to color her skin with minimal blending. The rest of the CAS card came together rather quickly. 

Supplies:
  • Stampendous mixed media cardstock (digi printed on...)
  • We R Memory Keepers - inked rose (Card base)
  • Live for today: dollar tree (sentiment)
  • simple stories say cheese - layers
  • wink of stella brush pens
  • Copic Marker E11 
  • Scotch ATG


Thanks for stopping by!
